sam and lance camilla lee to have you with us. we will start with you, sam. if you could take it away, our first paper is the scottish daily mail and news from alex salmond. what a way to seek revenge. alex salmond launched a new party today with alba at quite a news conference that has sent shock waves through the political system. there many different aspects to this. i think nicola sturgeon essentially had quite a clear role at the elections in may. after the fact she was cleared last week of doing any wrongdoing in this whole sordid affair. and actually now with the launch of this new party, this political landmine is now left right and centre being late here potentially. you can see that actually she could get bouncing to

relying on those who have safe money over the course of the pandemic to get out there and handed over to kick—start the economy back in the lie. i think about 180 million apparently has been saved over the past year but honestly we had a tale of two very different pandemics with people who have really struggle to make ends meet and those who have actually not really been badly affected and eventually cut their costs commuting in that kind of thing. and those people he is looking to to get out there and put their hand in their pockets so i'm not sure how people want to go shopping at 9pm at night but... you would be surprised. that's - shopping at 9pm at night but... you would be surprised. that's a - would be surprised. that's a confession _ would be surprised. that's a confession there. _ would be surprised. that's a confession there. nothing . would be surprised. that's a i confession there. nothing nicer would be surprised. that's a - confession there. nothing nicer than supermarket — confession there. nothing nicer than supermarket shopping _ confession there. nothing nicer than supermarket shopping at _ confession there. nothing nicer than supermarket shopping at night. i supermarket shopping at night. interesting because everybody is primitive and as to whether we are going to get on monday and that probably might be one of the first test of enforcement for example and
